Isabella is a great guide

Published on Jan, 2025

Isabella gave us a great overview of the beautiful city of Lucerne. She showed us little gems and also shared the history behind the city. It was informative and fun. Thanks Isabella!

Wonderful excursion

Published on Jan, 2025

Our guide Isabella was wonderful, her tour was one of the best I’ve had. The boat ride is so peaceful. And the wine/cheese tasting was heavenly. Could not recommend enough. A wonderful way to spend our Christmas Day!

New Years Day tour

Published on Jan, 2025

We toured on New Years Day. It is a wonderful walk but there will be a gentle grade uphill portion by the old city wall. In winter, appropriate shoes for possible snow are recommended. Our guide, Isabella, was informative and very pleasant. There were two very small children in our group who stopped frequently. She was patient and made good use of our time waiting, however, so nothing was lost. This is a great introductory tour to Luzern.

Isabella the tour guide...

Published on Dec, 2024

Isabella the tour guide was great. The tour does take you walking uphill for a certain period of time so I wouldn’t recommend to anyone with mobility issues as it is slightly demanding. Was a great tour of the city though and I would do it again.

Cold but a lot of fun.

Published on Dec, 2024

Isabella was very friendly and knowledgeable. It was chilly, but we kept warm walking all over We would definitely recommend.
